Long Bay Expedition

The Long Bay Expedition (1 September 1722) was an expedition undertaken by the Spanish Governor of Cuba, Laureano de Torres y Ayala, and an armada of Spanish Navy ships in the autumn of 1722. Governor Torres sought to locate the fabled "Observatory", which was said to harness the power to control men's minds. The pirate Edward Kenway set out to stop Torres, breaking through his fleet's blockade of the cove by boarding, plundering, and sinking his man o' war Pembroke. He then rushed inland as Spanish Army troops executed several native warriors, and he fought his way through Spanish troops in the Observatory itself. Kenway encountered Torres in the observation room after making his way past several puzzles, and he jumped from a rock to assassinate Torres. In doing so, he prevented the secret Templar Order from carrying out their plot, and Kenway and Ah Tabai sealed the Observatory off to prevent the Templars from reaching it.
